Kenmore Elite HE 5t Steam Dryer F01 Error

Question: Kenmore Elite HE 5t Steam Dryer F01 Error

Details: Error Code: F01 Model Number: 110.87731702 My wife mentioned the 'dryer doesn't work'. I entered the laundry room and smelled smoke and F01 was flashing on the dryer display. After a quick search, I unplugged the dryer to reset. Plugged it back in and turned it on after 1min+ and it powered on fine, I could select options as normal, but when I selected start, the display panel went dark and F01 appeared after 10 seconds. After reading your feedback to other, I'm more than willing to try to change the thermal fuse (first) and control panel second. If you think either is the likely cause. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you. Mike

Hello Mike,

Considering the fact that you smelled smoke the issue with your dryer is definitely a failed main control board. The fuse will never cause smoke and that electrical burning smell that is a complete meltdown of the main control board. The board you will need to replace for your Kenmore Elite Dryer model number 110.87731702 is linked below:
